I dealt with Adam before. I bought two sets of Eibach springs for my FK8 off him. He was selling them on a FK8 Facebook group, he had legit photos of his own FK8 so I took the risk and EMT'd a stranger I never met. A few hours later he drops it off at my work place.

He also sells the Canadian "VTEC TURBO" sticker to Americans as well, and I've seen lots of people having good experiences and vouch for him.

Smooth transaction, quick response.

4 - Searching sellers phone number revealed some negative feedback from DSM forums

Beyond all that, the sales tactic of "It's up for one week or I'll keep it" tells me the seller is looking for an emotional "panic" buyer that will disregard due-diligence in favor of ensuring the car does not slip away.
As for replacing your toy with a FK8, I currently have my AP2 which I rarely get to enjoy, as well as the FK8 and my Audi S3. S3 being my daily. I couldn't bring myself to sell the AP2 but I have been often contemplating that because I have that constant worry that someone will hit it or something. While it is absolutely useless in practicality as well.

I've said it before but if you are forced to have one car to do it all, get the damn FK8. It fits everything, goes like hell, sips fuel.
